Many seed heads which are very small.

Any chance of getting a good closeup of the flowers? When I blow one up, it appears to be a head of small bell-shaped flowers. Which leaves belong to the flowers - the linear grass-like leaves or the short broad leaves in a sort of rosette in photo 1?

Hope the 2 new photos are some help. The attached leaves seem to be grasses. The flower stalk is only about 10 cm or less and very fragile.

Thanks Ruth - definitely a clover will need to check books at home to determine which one it is

The plants are so small, flower stalks are 10cm or less. Will keep a watch on the area.

I will keep a lookout for the area - it is near a pathway. The strange thing is there does not seem to be any leaves, they may have died and we are just left with the seed stalk.
